I recently found the following in a bit of #python sample code:

python random_data = random.sample(string.hexdigits, 8)

Wait, hexdigits? I'd use string.ascii_letters and string.ascii_lowercase before, but this was the first time I'd seen hexdigits, which is exactly what you'd think:

The string '0123456789abcdefABCDEF'.

That's useful.

Now that I'm blogging more often, I often find myself uploading screenshots. MacOS' capabilities are fine, except that I don't really like uploading files with names like "Screen Shot 2020-02-10 at 10.38.34 PM".

Yesterday I asked:

Are there any #macos screenshot utilities that will simply let me name the file before saving it? (My needs are simple, the OS’ own utility is quite sufficient except for the name thing)

My old Six Apart mate Simon Wistow mentioned Monosnap a free utility that does exactly that - lets me name the file before saving it.

Unacceptable. Americans, please give this a read, Helen is speaking truth about us.

Ro had this article sitting in his "saved" list, and I've been reading it all afternoon on and off. It's by Helene Schouten, and was written in October 2015, and it's a real eye-opener. I won't quote it yet, because that would mean reducing it to "important" or "notable" parts and I haven't spent nearly enough time with it to tell which parts to safely extract without breaking it.

Imma make this clear: I'm not building software for developers.

I'm working to building tools for people.

You shouldn't have to know to maintain and secure a server to have your own independent identity online. You shouldn't need to know what libsodium or similar library to be secure online.

That's my objective.
